Comprehensive Monitoring of Nonlinear Processes Based on Concurrent Kernel Projection to Latent Structures

摘要

Projection to latent structures (PLS) and concurrent PLS are approaches for solving quality-relevant process monitoring. In this paper, a new approach called concurrent kernel PLS (CKPLS) is presented to detect faults comprehensively for nonlinear processes. The new model divides the nonlinear process and quality spaces into five subspaces: the co-varying, process-principal, process-residual, quality-principal, and quality-residual subspaces. The co-varying subspace reflects nonlinear relationship between quality variables and original process variables. The process-principal and process-residual subspaces reflect the principal variations and residuals, respectively, in the nonlinear process space. Further, the quality-principal and quality-residual subspaces reflect the principal variations and residuals, respectively, in the quality space. The proposed approach is demonstrated by a numerical simulation and an application of the Tennessee Eastman process.
